Why a buy GTT is rejected at trigger on Zerodha Kite

Sun, 21 Jun 2026 00:00:00 +0000

A buy GTT is rejected on Kite , Zerodha’s trading platform, when the trading account does not hold enough free cash to fund the limit order that the GTT fires at the instant the trigger condition is met. A GTT (Good Till Triggered) order is not pre-funded at creation; Zerodha checks margin only when the trigger fires and a regular buy limit order is sent to the exchange. If the cash is short at that moment, the risk management system rejects the order, and the GTT is marked triggered with nothing filled.
